I have a few MS Word 4 questions:

Is there a way to get the ruler to be opened by default when you
first open up Word on either a new document or a previously made
document?  Every time I launch into Word, it comes up without it.

Is there a way to make Word 4 the default application of choice
for other documents?  So that when I double-click on a text 
document, it launches Word.  I used to have MacWrite on my hard
disk and every time I double-clicked a document, it launched it.
I removed MacWrite and now I get the "Can't find application..."
dialog box.  

If this is not possible, it would be nice if someone would make
a utility that would convert the document "creator" code from
MACA (or what ever it is) to Word's 4-digit code.

Thanks...
